    Yeah, I'm not spending money on new wheels; I only have sixty bucks plus shipping and handling in my wheel skins!

    Can you help me find a 2" front lift? Will the 2" spacers push the springs too far?

    This is the second or third time this has happened this year; Not long after the COVID outbreak started, I got a message from a woman who lived in NYC (This was the first time this had happened). When an attractive woman (or a Facebook account with a profile picture featuring an attractive woman) messages me, it is generally something to do with porn or adult chat; This was not the case, and I am 99% sure the woman herself was legit, but it was still something of a scam. She lived in Manhattan, and the messages she sent me gave all indications that she was just a woman stuck in NYC as a result of the COVID lockdown; I humored her and gave her the benefit of the doubt and chatted with her, even though she was married and chatting with her was of no benefit to me...

    A few days after she cold-messaged me, she started pressuring me to invest two grand into her company that specialized in cryptocurrency; I eventually ignored her and when I checked back some time later our conversation had been deleted and her Facebook account had seemingly been terminated.

    Lemme refresh your memories; Jacks is a Jack Russell Terrier, born with an ultimately fatal neurological disorder that is unique to his breed. He will likely not live beyond two years old (he is presently about seven months old), and was surrendered to Home At Last Rescue by a Lancaster puppy mill. One of my company’s VPs and his wife are fosters for Home At Last, and they ultimately decided to keep him; They now have none dog, plus the black Spaniel mix below that they are currently fostering!

    Here’s Mona; She’s a roughly 3-year old Spaniel mix who was found as a stray in South Carolina...

    You can put bigger tires on your current wheels.

    How much bigger? I like Cooper Discovers but they don't seem to have them in 235/70R15 (I have 225/70R15)...

    I'm sure you could find something a little taller than what you currently have, l would have to search around to see what kind of different sizes are out there.

    A 235 75 15 looks to be about 1.5" taller and .5" wider than your current tire and would probably match nicely to a small lift.
